Spectacular Narratives

Despite Stephen Crane's great interest in social themes of his time, few critics have analyzed the historical and political significance of his work. This book demonstrates that only an analysis capable of grasping the politics of Crane's texts can adequately account for their stylistic and aesthetic qualities. Focusing on "Maggie: A Girl of the Streets" and "The Red Badge of Courage," as well as on seldom studied bestsellers of the American 1890s such as R.H. Davis's "Soldiers of Fortune" and F.M. Crawford's "Via Crucis," it offers new insights into the formal and ideological relationship of Crane's fiction to popular literature.
